Someone mentioned that files in /usr/lib are not necessarily writable, so that could break both the rebuild-gcj-db and rebuild-security providers. But these scripts are only (normally) called by rpm when it installs or uninstalls packages and /usr/lib must be writable at this point. I don't know how I feel about the Makefile idea. In any case, it should never require user intervention. What besides sendmail is using this method anyhow? IMO, `make' should be touched by packagers only, certainly not by end users, and not even by system admins. Their work is supposed to be done by rpm out of the box must of the time. One of the good points about the existing scripts is that they are (a) completely managed by rpm (b) transparent to the user *unless they fail of course). - -- Sincerely, David Walluck <david@xxxxxxxx> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDdQ+marJDwJ6gwowRAsc0AJ9xjjoy2jp3scuswhbFRvQKps4/KQCff3gT rxDvijQ5ue2V5g2VlMTRMKY= =w3hT -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
